Pros: great acting, good effects, decent suspense factor
Cons: plot holes, reality casts the movie in a different light
Summary: Is the era of the Hollywood blockbuster action over? I think that's a question everyone is asking right now, and the answer isn't coming any time soon. Before September 11, 2001, movies like Independence Day were considered family ... read more

Cons: Clumsy bad guys.
Summary: Back in 1997 there was a movie called Air Force One, with Harrison Ford as the President who formulated a plan to stop a terrorist dictator in Kazakhstan. Praised by the Russians, the President declares he will not back down or negotiate with ... read more

Pros: Harrison Ford and rest of cast, the great values within the film.
Cons: R-rating, there's not that much blood/violence in here.
Summary: It was several years before I saw this movie, but when I finally saw it I thought it was terrific, so what if the plot isn't "believable" to some, I like the way it was done. Besides, don't we always have to "suspend reality" a bit to be able to enjoy ... read more

Pros: Some good action sequences, some decent characters...
Cons: ... predictable script, uninvolving, doesn't make best use of a good cast...
Summary: In Air Force One, US President James Marshall (Harrison Ford) is put in a tough position when his newly expounded policy of non-tolerance to terrorists (following the capture of a general in Kazakhstan) is put to the test, involving him in a very ... read more

Pros: Wolfgang Petersen's directing, Andrew Marlowe's script, Harrison Ford's screen presence, Jerry Goldsmith's score
Cons: Requires SOME suspension of disbelief.
Summary: Pre-takeoff Preliminaries: Musings and Comments. 1997 was a very good year for me as a movie-goer. I not only got to see the 20th Anniversary Special Edition re-releases of the original Star Wars Trilogy (which, of course, co-starred the top-billed ... read more

Pros: Harrison Ford and Wolfgang Peterson have created a visual feast and a credible action adventure
Cons: Nothing that I can truly recall
Summary: I've never met a Harrison Ford role I didn't like. (Okay, I lied...there IS What Lies Beneath -- Ford should NOT play bad guys! See my review for more details.) That being said, however, Air Force One was the actor's most recent ... read more

Pros: Lots of action
Cons: Idiotic Hollywood view of Washington, D.C. Apparently, during the Clinton Administration, the President is GOD!
Summary: I already realize that stupid epinion's fanatics are going to say this is a "NOT HELPFUL" review but screw them. This movie sucked!
The movie starts out with a bunch of Nationalistic Russian Communists who hate everybody, and want nothing but ... read more

Pros: Good suspense
Cons: Some irrational action scenes that could never happen in real life
Summary: After seeing this film, I wondered if our own president had seen it himself. Then I pictured our own president playing the part of Harrison Ford in the film and I laughed out loud. I can't think of any president in the near past that could have done ... read more

Pros: Decent flying sequences including combat aircraft.
Cons: Ludicrous plot, overblown acting, wasted performances, you name it.
Summary: Suspend disbelief and try to accept the hijacking of Air Force One. Even if that is allowed, what is not allowed is an inconsistent plot. Right from the beginning, a member of the crisis staff concludes that the hijackers must have had inside help. ... read more

Pros: Great action, suspense, and special effects.
Cons: Ending was a little lame, but just a little.
Summary: Harrison Ford has created quite a persona for himself. He normally plays the dedicated male, who is willing to fight for what he believes in, and normally it is always the moral thing to do. Plus for once our President of the United States isn’t seen ... read more

Pros: It'll keep your interest from start to finish
Cons: If that mouse asked me for a glass of milk, I'd tell him where to stick it!
Summary: No matter who or what Harrison Ford plays, he runs the attitude right up the flagpole, and I salute. Han Solo started that whole thing, and I don't know that I've seen a Ford role yet where Solo's cockiness didn't shine through, especially in that ... read more

Pros: Exciting, smart
Cons: Supporting cast
Summary: It's great when Ford gets away from his distractions trying to do sensitive movies to do the good, old-fashioned running and falling down movies. That's what Ford does best: run and fall down. He did it perfectly in the Indiana Jones trilogy and in the ... read more

Pros: The Cast
Cons: The Special Effects, the Script
Summary: Please don't get me wrong. Harrison Ford in any action movie is just plain good. He has the look of a hero all over his face, yet he seems like the nicest guy in the world. Which would make him perfect for a President of the US.
And Gary ... read more
